Hate to hear that. But how did they take the guy into custody and not secure him to make sure he was unarmed?

If those cops had guns, none of this would have happened.

Very tragic but this was my first thought....Also was there no other officers in the station? I'm thinking if you go into a police station and shoot a cop your probably not making it to the door....
